Talk:Daniel Johns
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Removed for now: this should go on the page for Silverchair rather than Johns:
- The band's career began when they signed to Sony Records in 1994, after their demo won the local heat of Triple J's "Unearthed" talent search. Their first album release was Frogstomp, in 1995.
[edit] Birth date
Although the most recent edit looks like a sneaky vandal, I double-checked it; and we have indeed had the wrong year .. ever since the first version of the article was created. (some google searches showed 1978, but these were wikipedia derivatives.) -- Chuq 03:55, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Unearthed
Silverchair were not discovered by the Unearthed competition. This is a common fallacy. The competition they won was 'Pick Me', part of the Nomad program on SBS. The main prize in the competition was a professionally filmed video clip. Silverchair won, and the Tomorrow clip was the result.
[edit] did the artist write this self- serving bio himself?
this bio reads like it was written by the artists own record company. it isnt at all critical. says nothing bad about the artist except to mention his health struggles.
